SP SD40R 7322
Title:  SP SD40R 7322
Description:  SP SD40R 7322 at Bensenville on Illinois, January 23, 1987, Kodachrome by Chuck Zeiler. I will point out that this was a public road on the south side of the Milwaukee Road's Bensenville Shops, and all you had to do was drive up this road and snap photos like this, without even getting out of your car.
